We’ve been waiting to play like this for a long time. Good time to do it.

Our pressure got to them in the second quarter.

It was enough to get it done tonight. I wish we had played better, but we’re going (to state) and that’s what matters.

These girls have played a lot of basketball, so they knew they could come back and win.

That would make it easier to scout, that’s for sure.

We had opportunities. You just can’t dig yourself too big a hole against good teams.

Well, we won the last three quarters, but you’ve got to play the whole game.

We were balanced; it was a fun game. It was a packed house. Any time we tried to pull away, they would answer back.

We’d keep pulling away and they’d reel us back in.

It was a good year. You know, 24-3 is not too bad.

We played basketball like it is supposed to be played. We moved the ball, we played good defense, we took care of the ball, and we shut down their top player. It was a great...
